Signed by Maker. Hoadley, CT. Early 19th century. Clock is in working condition. Silas Hoadley was born in 1786 and died in Plymouth, CT in 1870. He first apprenticed to his uncle Samuel and was making clocks in 1808. Along with Seth Thomas, he was hired by Eli Terry at the age of 21 to set up and work at Terry’s Ireland factory. Shortly after Terry’s Contract was satisfied He and Seth Thomas bought the factory from Terry. Eventually he purchased all of Thomas’s shares of the business and for the first time was in business for himself.
